Joe, the first Woodcrest 2S SpecIntRate benchmark from INTEL was published at a German site almost a year ago. I linked to it here and on I-Hub to discuss that early sign of what was to come. According to the new numbers, INTEL is about to exceed their performance estimate (and roadmap) even - according to INTEL´s original plans, Woodcrest was supposed to be a 2.93Ghz part with a 1066Mhz FSB.

If you were AMD, what would you do with your pricing structure for Opteron 2xx? Obviously, with a 3Ghz Woodcrest, the current 2.6Ghz Opteron 285 @ >$1000 will have to come down sharply. Do you think pricing on Mhz (vs. Woodcrest) is a viable option?
